Chapter 297
“compliment.”
“what.”
“compliment.”
“what.”
The same questions and answers were exchanged twice, and Ellen and I glared at each other with puzzled expressions.
“If you don’t win, you’ll get scolded! Then, since you won, you should congratulate me!”
“I never said I would compliment you.”
“Reinhardt is the best! Noona knew Reinhardt would win?!”
“… … There are too many compliments on this side, so even listening to it is not very inspiring.”
“Sorry!”
Ellen said that she hadn’t agreed to praise her, and raised her pills. In the end, the tournament was over and, as everyone expected, I won.
We won and lost the fight, but there was no bitterness between us. Ludwig, like Ludwig, and Scarlet, like Scarlet, were unique guys.
Like yesterday, the A and B class members all went out to play together to commemorate the victory.
After all, it is a festival.
Both Harriot and Charlotte sincerely congratulated me on my win.
Ellen also stopped me briefly on the way back to the dorm. After waiting for everyone to return, only the two of them were left.
“… … .”
Ellen was hesitant.
I could give you some compliments, but do you think I can’t bear to say that?
The boy’s face was a bit red.
“me… … . saying this a little. that’s weird… … . I know.”
“… … what.”
“… … I was proud.”
The sudden noise made my hair go white.
“You were proud.”
It’s a little more than happy.
It was embarrassing.
No, it’s not like it was great or cool, but it’s a bit strange to say that you were proud!
“Are you my mother?”
At my words, Ellen’s expression turned grim again. It’s like you raised me on your back, right?
Do you know that I fed you more?
“I taught you.”
This incorrigible kid ended up winning a tournament as a result of my one year of teaching! I felt the same way!
“Are you saying you’re good after all?”
“huh.”
Ellen nodded and smiled.
“You’ve been following along well.”
In front of that smile and those words, I couldn’t say anything else.
Most of what made me who I am today was Ellen. Ellen looks at me and she smiles brightly.
“You’ve worked hard up until now, Reinhardt. congratulations.”
“… … .”
In the end, even if all of this was thanks to Ellen, it was me who persistently tried to learn swordsmanship while harassing her to the point of disgust.
Even if there were countless coincidences and cheats, it was me who stubbornly tried to learn by swinging the sword, colliding and falling.
Not all my strength was gained through effort, but I can’t see that it wasn’t my effort.
That’s why Ellen is telling me about her hard work.
“what… … . thanks.”
After whining about asking for compliments, when I actually heard the compliments… … .
That’s right.
uh.
In the end, I also received compliments from Ellen.
I don’t think there are people who don’t like my win, and Ludwig and Scarlett seem to have a crush on me more, so the result is good.
however.
My shoulders are getting heavier, and my insides are shaking as if they were being put on top.
This is because of the side effect of strengthening magical power. In fact, in order to overwhelm Ludwig, he used magical power enhancement throughout the 3rd set, and because of that, his physical fatigue was no joke.
Excessive is right.
I didn’t pass out or vomit blood, but I was dizzy.
However, it seems that it is not only because of the enhancement of magical power.
Intoxicated with the joy of winning, I want to forget about it, but in the end, I can’t forget it.
Today is Tuesday.
tomorrow is wednesday.
“ah… … .”
dress up contest.
It was approaching tomorrow.
Is this what it feels like to eat mustard while crying?
The poor condition seemed to get worse and not get better.
In the end, it was clear that I wouldn’t be in the condition to do anything after the women’s dress contest, so I gave up my ticket to the finals of the unlimited level tournament.

Tuesday night.
The residence of the Magic Research Club.
Harriet de Saintoine was experimenting with something in the safe room in the basement of the mansion. It is a very large laboratory, equipped with barriers, protection, and soundproofing magic, enough to experiment with higher level destruction magic.
It’s not that there aren’t any outdoor practice rooms, but since destruction magic is usually accompanied by binge drinking, it’s bound to be done in a place with such a complete set of countermeasures.
Since it’s a festival right now, there’s no way we can do experiments like this outside.
Harriet was experimenting on something inside the safe room, and all the members of the Magic Research Society were watching it from outside through the security window.
-uuuuu
A stream of flame rose from Harriet’s fingertips and hit the pile on the opposite wall.
-bang!
With the explosion, streams of flame soared, this time wrapping around Harriet from the top of her head to her shoulders.
A low-level destructive magic called Firebolt.
In an instant, five Firebolts were formed and hit at once.
– Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
It was a very fast pace with almost no casting.
From Herriet’s wrist to her forearm, the blue magic lines drew a strange pattern.
“Success!”
“done… … !”
“I-I can’t believe this is real… … .”
Even after that, Harriet demonstrated numerous magics, such as using a number of lower destructive magics in succession, including Lightning Bolt, or even casting and flying magics such as fireballs.
All in all, Harriet was a master of magic long ago. And even if you’re not majoring in destruction magic, everyone can do this.
just different.
Casting is abnormally fast, and even multi-casting is being done.
When Harriet came out of the safe room, all the members of the Magic Research Society were staring at Herriot with their eyes shining.
“Okay! Are you done now?”
At Christina’s words, Harriet smiled weakly as if she were tired.
“To some extent. Still, I think we need to make up for it a bit more.”
“Junior! You are a real genius!”
Rudina jumped up and down and rejoiced as if it were her own work.
“I don’t think this will be real… … .”
Louis Ancton muttered with a bewildered expression. Harriet laughed at the dazed Louis Ancton.
“You made it, what if you panic?”
“no… … . This is just words, I can’t believe it’s connected exactly with the theory… … .”
Louis Ancton was even more astonished to see the scene he had conceived and realized.
“This, in my opinion, is a type of magic that no one but you can use. something like this… … . There’s no way other wizards can do it either. Didn’t I even think that this could only be possible?”
In other words, Harriet was using the tools Louis had made too perfectly. It meant that Louis Ancton, who created something like this in a short time, was a genius, but the only genius who could use it was Harriet.
“okay? Then I’m fine.”
On Harriet’s right arm, under the cuff, something like a blue painting hummed and glowed, then disappeared.
“Ugh! Reinhardt also won.”
Harriet stretched out as if she was tired, and let out a deep sigh.
“I have to do something too.”
Unlimited tournaments are on a different level from first year tournaments.
In fact, even though you never know who will win, Harriet doesn’t think he’ll be disappointingly eliminated.
The members of the Magic Research Society knew what Harriet could do, so they never thought it was arrogant confidence.
An annoying person who keeps interfering without notice and picking up nonsense.
Olivia Ranze.
Harriet was determined to break that arrogant nose.
He wouldn’t have thought that he would get hit in the wrong place because he only cared about Ellen.

wednesday.
Harriet wasn’t in the dorm because she was busy, and the kids participating in Miss & Mr. Temple weren’t there either, as if they were starting to properly prepare.
Sooner or later, all the guys close to me are busy with their own business.
and.
I am not free either.
“Reinhardt! We are going to see our parade, do you want to go too?”
Somehow, after the tournament, the three brothers and Heinrich became closer.
Kono Lint looked at me and gestured.
“No, I want to rest.”
“ah… … . Did you overdo it yesterday?”
“… … uh.”
In fact, it’s true that it’s too much, and it’s true that I want to rest because my whole body is very strong, but I can’t rest today.
dress up contest… … . I have to go… … .
This event that increases mana by 5 could be the most important event of this festival… … .
Right now, my horsepower is 14.2, but if I go up by 5, it will be 19.2.
If you increase by 0.80,000 more, your magic power control talent will bloom.
So I can’t give up.
In the end, this situation where the guys close to me didn’t ask me to go somewhere today was a good situation for me as a result.
No matter what I do, no one will care where everyone went. That’s why even if you go to a women’s dress contest and come back, you won’t hear about where you’ve been.
To escape from the dormitory without knowing, to attend a dress-up contest and come back.
I’m a really crazy baby!
okay… … . You are a crazy bastard who has sold his soul and dignity to events and challenges. Ever since I turned into a woman and confessed to Kono Lint, I had crossed an irreversible river.
It’s all my karma.
They say that if I stay still, it will go at least half way, but the taffy seller found out that it was strange, so he made me do things like this after that.
If I hadn’t done that, I might have given another giveaway event at the timing of this festival.
It’s my fault. It’s my fault. it’s my big fault
* * *
The dress up contest is held at night.
Of course, it seems that it is not a huge space like the main stadium, but a place like an indoor auditorium for general classes, but the location is already known.
It’s lunchtime now.
The contest starts at 6pm.
But preparations had to start now. I prepared a dress that I can put on and take off alone, but I can’t do my makeup alone.
I’m going to go out of the temple first, get my makeup done by Elleris, and then I’m going to pack my clothes and come back.
Of course, I plan to go out wearing a hood and come back.
Fortunately, because it is the festival period, the control of the number of people, including the pass inspection, is loose at the temple gate.
After finishing all the preparations outside the temple, let’s kill time in a secluded place, and when the start time of the contest is near, let’s rush back in.
There’s nothing good about wandering around inside the temple.
I don’t know why they’re considering the number of cases like a covert operation in doing something like this.
actually.
How can this be a hundred thousand times more tense than a tournament!
What if you find out? What if someone sees it? The moderator is suddenly Reinhardt! What if you say something like this?
Should I just leave? It’s magic anyway, it will rise if you do it like years and years, but isn’t it too risky for that? Is magic control really necessary? Do you have any age?
Yeah, there’s no need to be greedy here, is there?
Even though my head was spinning, I was leaving the dormitory with a half-spirited expression.
There were many people on the streets during the festival. But wherever they went, I couldn’t afford to care.
Thinking of giving up participating in the women’s dress contest, and at the same time thinking about what kind of expression I should wear to look less like Reinhardt, I felt like my brain would split in two.
No, the brain is originally a left brain and a right brain.
My mentality was grinding in real time to the extent that I forgot even the obvious.
I don’t know what kind of spirit I went out, and the time is broad daylight.
Ellerith was still running the shop. It still doesn’t seem to work.
But today I was told to close the store and wait at home.
A residential area near the Aligar shopping district.
I knocked on the door to the semi-basement, and Elleris opened the door.
“Are you here, my dear?”
“uh.”
As if she was already getting ready, Elleris had not only cleaned the room, but also had makeup tools lined up.
Ellerith inspected my complexion and tilted her head.
“The tournament… … . Are you not well?”
“No, I won.”
“But why is the expression… … . ah.”
Even with the happy news of winning, Elleris nodded with the corner of her mouth trembling slightly, perhaps forgetting why I couldn’t help but have a bad expression.
“… … Well done though, low. That’s remarkable growth.”
“thank you… … .”
After saying something that I don’t know if it’s a compliment or consolation, Elleris sat me down in a chair.
“that… … . Shall we start right away?”
“… … I’ll do it anyway, what’s the use of procrastinating?”
Both had miserable faces.
After washing my face, I changed my face to the one I had sculpted before using Sarkegar’s ring.
It’s a slightly different level, but if you add makeup and change your expression, you’ll look like a completely different person.
Although the face shape had been slightly changed, the bare face, and the face that had only been changed to silver hair, were reflected in the reflective film Elerith summoned.
“… … why? Oh no. no. Don’t say anything.”
Strange even I think! I changed a little bit and didn’t even wear makeup, but that’s it!
It’s like drawing a girl and insisting that it’s a boy!
“… … let’s begin.”
“… … uh.”
The prelude to a hellish time rises.
It’s a day anyway.
In one day, there will be no more such horrible things to do.
Anyway, no matter how hellish everything in the world is, if you look past it, you will remember it as if it was like that back then. Even if you twist the chicken’s neck, it’s like dawn comes. Even if time passes and the world turns upside down, the women’s dress up contest ends today!
No matter how slowly time passes, tomorrow is bound to come, and when it does, I’ll say goodbye to this filth, and I’ll be left with nothing more than puffed-up mana and achievement points!
After it’s over, yes, I did well at that time. Thinking about this, you will be proud of me for doing this while holding back your shame!
I make excuses for self-justification for myself.
ah… … .
At this rate, I think I will level up my self-suggestion.
